In this episode you’ll learn:

Drew Patrick didn’t expect to become the owner of Detroit’s Skidmore Studio—at least not yet. But when Tim Smith, the creative firm’s beloved owner and CEO, suddenly passed away, Drew embraced the challenge of carrying on Skidmore’s 60-year legacy. Discover how Drew is preserving the studio’s values-driven history while also moving it forward into a brighter future on this week’s donothing podcast.
As president, Drew sees every challenge as an opportunity to improve and is unwavering in his commitment to doing things the right way. In other words, he’s the one you go to when you need to make things happen. He works tirelessly to strengthen Skidmore’s business and foster a workplace that continues to be happy, healthy and successful for the next 60+ years.
Prior to serving as president, Drew was Skidmore’s CFO and received Crain’s Detroit Business CFO of the Year in 2013.
